A flop for Keeley Hawes after the Bodyguard ad astra performance. Of course docudrama imposes certain constrains on twists and flow of action but "based on a true story" should not serve as predetermination for a dull, motionless an spark-less story. DCI Caroline Goode bears the brunt of depressive omnipresent sorrow which bends her down to ground and puts a permanent stamp of a deep sadness on her face. She will not stay long in the force if every case would rip her apart like this. The accompanying cast including Mark Stanley (who in parallel excelled in Criminal UK-2 and Sulphur and White) would not put Honour on top of their CVs either. Depicting of the Kurd community has been also shallow and prone to stereotypes.
